Dear Colleagues,
Wheatley Properties is planning to perform fire alarm audible testing and inspection with the Palo Alto Fire Marshall at the 3180 Porter Dr., as part of the HVAC system upgrade.
DATE: Thursday, September 17th, 2026
TIME: 7:00 am to 9:00 am
IMPACT: The fire alarm audible and visual devices will be activated during this time. The sound level or flashing strobe lights can be uncomfortable for some individuals. It is recommended that all persons avoid occupying the building, if possible, while testing is being conducted.
SAFETY IMPACT: None
Any fire alarm activity outside of the timeframe indicated above should be treated as an actual fire event and normal evacuation plans should be followed.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding this testing, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Stan Bouyea
Facilities Area Zone Manager
